Wildcat Golf Club - The Highlands
Rating Snapshot
About
The Highlands Course is probably the more stimulating of the two tracks at Wildcat GC, offering better views of the city, natural wetlands and grasses, and some intriguing flat sand bunkers. Case must have an affinity for the No. 7, because like the Lakes track, the 421-yard, par 4 hole 7 is the most difficult rated hole. Watch out for the par 5s on this one, three of which play at or above 570 yards from the tips.
Getting there : From downtown take Hwy. 288 south for 5 miles to Loop 610. Head west and find the Fannin exit, where you'll U-turn under 610 and drive east on the access road to Almeda Rd. Turn right on Almeda and the course is 3 miles further.

Loved it!
Plenty of challenge without making me feel it's above my level of play. Great wind down sitting on the patio afterwards.
Is definitely on the go to regular list
Love this layout and the course was in great shape, really cool views. The need for shot placement made it very interesting
First Time Highlander
This course was great, love the layout, course was in great shape worth the $
Wonderful course
It was nice day to play golf.
Green are so nice. Fairway are wonderful.
No complaints.
Everything are beautiful.
Slow play dumb layout
Pace was so bad. 5+ hours. Layout is ridiculous now gps on carts and terrible layout of the holes.
Always happy at Wildcat
We often play here because it’s so close to home. You can rarely get snagged in a slow pace of play crowd, it otherwise, this course is a sure-fire hit. We were surprised the course was in a good a condition as it was. Compares favorably with much more expensive and private clubs.
Sunday at the Masters pin placement on a Monday
Really enjoyed the Highlands course. I played with a fellow crew member that I tour with on the road. For winter conditions, the course was in great shape. Some of the pins were tucked or cut right at the top of a ridge or hill, which added strokes. A map of the greens is highly recommended for newcomers. Staying under the hole or on the correct side of the green is the difference between a par and a triple! The staff there are friendly and attentive. The practice green by the range didn't quite match the slickness of the greens on the Highlands course, but I bet that the one right by the first tee did. I will roll a few putts there instead next time. The practice mats had some give. They weren't hard as a rock. I always appreciate that when you're not allowed to hit off grass. The sand was consistent and fair. I will be back to knock some strokes off my score next week!
Slow play
All I can say is you tee off and then end up waiting on every hole from #3 on. it got so bad that 3 groups were on #7 the par 3. We decided to go #12 where it was wide open. I spoke to marshall several times he said a 2 some was holding everyone up. Oh well course is great just need to regulate pace of play.
Exceptional Experience!
From the counter treatment and assistance to the first tee box joining some great guys it was an awesome unforgettable experience. Coming in from out of town you never know whom you'll get paired up with and the pairing was Aces. I've already shared my experience and will make it a point to return just to play this facility. The course was in excellent shape tee to green. A must play!
